DISEASE INTERVENTION COMPARISON RESULTS
Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2015;4:CD005381 Systematic Review, Cochrane Review
IN cognitive impairment, age related, older people without cognitive impairment The Use of
physical exercise, exercise training
As Treatment, Acute
Is equal Than
no exercise training
To improve cognitive function
Neurology. 2019 Jan 30. doi: 10.1212/WNL.0000000000007003. [Epub ahead of print] Randomized Controlled Trial
IN cognitive impairment, age related, young people without cognitive impairment, lifestyle and habits, exercise The Use of
physical exercise, aerobic
As Prevention, Primary
Is better Than
stretching / toning
To increase cognitive executive function (β = 0.018 SD/y; p = 0.028; effect increasing with age) and increase cortical thickness left frontal region. Also increased aerobic capacity and decreased body mass index.
Ann Intern Med. 2010 Aug 3;153(3):182-93 Systematic Review
IN dementia, age related cognitive impairment The Use of
cognitive training, physical exercise
As Etiologic risk factor
Is better Than
no training, no exercise
To help to maintain cognitive function over age
BMJ. 2017 Jun 22;357(357):j2709 Cohorts
IN dementia, age related cognitive impairment The Use of
physical exercise
As Prevention, Primary
Is equal Than
sedentary life
To modify the risk of dementia: no evidence of a neuroprotective effect of physical activity. Previous findings may be attributable to reverse causation, that is, due to a decline in physical activity levels in the preclinical phase of dementia
Arch Phys Med Rehabil. 2020 May;101(5):762-769. doi: 10.1016/j.apmr.2020.01.012 Randomized Controlled Trial
IN dementia, older patients The Use of
physical exercise, exercise training, whether strength (anaerobic) or aerobic intensive 4-week program
As Treatment, Acute
Is good Than
no control group without exercise
To increase cognitive function (mean increases of 1-2 points in MMSE and MoCA) and general physical status (mean increase 5 points in Barthel score)
